Color-correcting need
Many buyers purchase specifically to neutralize strongly pigmented, red, purple, or dark lips so that lighter or truer lip tint shades can show properly on top.
Word-of-mouth / social discovery
Several reviewers mention buying after seeing it on YouTube, TikTok/Douyin makeup trends, or because of good online reviews, indicating influencer-driven demand.
Repurchase and shade collecting
A notable share of reviewers say they repurchased or bought additional colors (warm/cool sets) after loving the original shade, showing repeat-buy potential.
Set/bundle value with free gifts
Some purchases were driven by set deals that included a bonus lip tint or gloss, which customers found convenient for trying the brand's other lip products.
Curiosity about the grey/unique base concept
Buyers were drawn to the distinctive grey-toned base shade, seen as more effective than concealer or foundation for canceling lip color.
